'Am I going to die here again today?' Jiufeng thought to herself in despair as she struggled to fend off the attacks of the ten Sword Ladies.
At that moment, Xingtian's voice transmission suddenly rang in her ears. "Jiufeng, the twelve of us are done for today. However, we can't all die here. You're the fastest among us. We'll do our best to help you escape!"
"Got it!" Jiufeng did not reject or decline politely. Instead, she agreed right away.
The Twelve Great Shamans never played around with politeness. They only pursued the best outcome.
Jiufeng's speed was the fastest among the Twelve Great Shamans. Jiufeng was the only one who could escape from the human's core defense zone all the way back to the Wu people's tribe.
Xingtian, who was surrounded and beaten up, suddenly attacked one of the Sword Ladies with all his might, as if he had gone mad. He completely disregarded his own defense and launched a fierce attack at one of the Sword Ladies.
Although Guhan had specially arranged for the strongest sword-bearers, such as the Baihu Guardian and the Black Tortoise Guardian, to surround and attack Xingtian, these Sword Ladies were unable to fend off Xingtian's fearless attacks even though they were experts among the famous swords. Around 30% of their shields' energy was depleted, and in the end, they were left with less than 10%, which was in danger of collapsing.
Of course, Xingtian also paid a bloody price for this. There were dozens of wounds on his body that were so deep that his bones could be seen.
It could be seen that after this round of explosive attacks, Xingtian would definitely be at the end of his rope. He would then be left with only death.
However, Xingtian had achieved his goal. The Sword Lady's call had successfully attracted Guhan over to help the Sword Lady fend off Xingtian's counterattack.
When Guhan attacked, Hou Yi, who was on the other side, also attacked. His body suddenly turned into a crimson arrow.
This was Hou Yi's ultimate move. He turned his body into an arrow and became one with it. It could produce an unparalleled breakthrough ability.
However, once this move was used, Hou Yi's body would burst into raging flames. In the end, he would burn himself to death. It was a move that would definitely kill him after using it. At the same time, the arrow also possessed unparalleled offensive power. Even the protectors of the Extreme Yin and Extreme Yang would die to this move if they were not careful.
In the hundreds of years of history, Hou Yi had used this last move to kill many powerful Sword Ladies before he died. Therefore, when they saw Hou Yi use this move, the surrounding Sword Ladies started to run for their lives. Anyway, Hou Yi would definitely die after using this move. There was no need for them to die with him.
In the end, when these sword-bearers scattered in all directions, they were surprised to find that Hou Yi's target was not them, but the Nine Phoenix sword-bearers who were in charge of besieging in another battle circle.
"Ye Fan, retreat!"
Ye Fan, who was ganging up on Jiufeng, suddenly heard Guhan's shout. As the Sword Master, Ye Fan naturally did not hesitate to fight on the frontlines, instead of commanding his own Swordmistress to fight like the other sword bearers.
As a result, when Ye Fan heard Guhan's shout, he reacted very quickly and instinctively took a step back. At this critical moment, a scarlet light flashed past Ye Fan's previous position. If not for Guhan's timely warning, Ye Fan would have become a pile of cooked meat by now.
"Thank you, Guhan …" Before Ye Fan could finish thanking Guhan, a pair of claws suddenly grabbed his neck. It was Jiufeng's claws.
Although Ye Fan was lucky to avoid Hou Yi's fatal strike, he also gave Jiufeng a chance to escape.
Jiufeng took this opportunity to grab Ye Fan.
"Ah … Ah …" Ye Fan, who was choked by Jiufeng's claws, screamed in pain.
At the same time, Jiufeng, who was flying in the air, shamelessly used Ye Fan's body as a shield. This made the other Swordmistresses who were trying to attack Jiufeng afraid. They were afraid that their attacks would hurt poor Ye Fan. No one was willing to stab their sword into their comrade's body.
Therefore, the Swordmistresses could only form a loose circle and surround Jiufeng. No one was willing to attack. They just kept entangling with Jiufeng.
However, this also gave Jiufeng space to fight and break out of the encirclement. Jiufeng charged left and right with Ye Fan, destroying countless buildings. They killed their way from the Taiyin Garrison to the Baihu Garrison Mansion.
At this time, Gu Han and the other sword bearers had finally completed their encirclement on Xing Tian. The strongest shaman had finally died helplessly at the hands of a nameless sword bearer. However, what surprised Gu Han was that according to the sword bearers who had ganged up on Chang 'e, when Chang' e was about to die, she suddenly opened a Void Gate and escaped into the void alone.
This surprised Guhan. The Zhou Tian Star Formation had blocked the ability to open a Void Gate, and the Xingtian, the only one who had the ability to open a Void Gate, had died in the hands of the Swordmistresses. How did Chang 'e open a Void Gate and escape?
Who opened a Void Gate for her?
"Could it be that the real Yu Level Yuan Kou isn't Xingtian, but Chang 'e?"
Guhan suddenly realized that during the process of killing Xingtian, although Xingtian was far more powerful than the other Senior Magi, Xingtian didn't use the power that a Yu Level Yuan Kou should have. He was still a top-tier Meteor Level Yuan Kou, the same level as the other Senior Magi.
However, when Guhan was eavesdropping on Xingtian, he clearly heard Xingtian admit to Ying Zheng that he had become a Yu Level Yuan Kou. What was going on?
What was going on with this Chang 'e?
Well, Guhan didn't have time to think about these things, because the Swordmistresses who were killing Jiufeng in the Baihu Garrison Mansion suddenly reported to Guhan that something bigger had happened.
When Guhan hurriedly rushed to the Baihu Garrison Mansion from the Taiyin Garrison, he found out that not only was Ye Fan the Swordmistress held hostage by Jiufeng, but there was also another person held hostage by Jiufeng.
However, this person was lying in a medical pod at the moment, and this person was none other than Yaoguang, who was still poisoned and was being treated in the medical pod.
Because he expected that the Taiyin Garrison would become a fierce battlefield, Guhan had moved Yaoguang's medical pod to the Baihu Garrison Mansion in advance.
However, he didn't expect that Jiufeng would accidentally barge into the Baihu Garrison Mansion, and then luckily found Yaoguang's medical pod. Now, Yaoguang had also become Jiufeng's hostage.
With Ye Fan as Jiufeng's hostage, Guhan was already worried enough, and now there was Yaoguang. The situation couldn't get any worse.
"Let me go!
I won't hurt them! "
When Jiufeng saw Guhan appear in front of her, she immediately yelled at the top of her voice.
"Guhan, don't worry about us. If we can kill all the Great Sorcerers today, then I, Ye Fan, will die a worthy death."
Although his life was in Jiufeng's hands, Ye Fan still fearlessly begged Guhan to kill Jiufeng. This moved all the sword-bearers present, and they secretly praised Ye Fan for being a real man.
"Shut up!"
Jiufeng unceremoniously scratched Ye Fan's body, leaving five deep bloody marks, and then continuously knocked on the glass cover of the medical pod with her claws. "Human, you don't care about his life, but don't you care about this Yaoguang's life?"
"Do it!" Guhan's expression turned cold, and he ordered the sword-bearers around him.
However, unexpectedly, after Guhan gave the order, none of the swordmaidens controlled by the sword-bearers moved, and they all stood there silently.
"What's wrong?" Guhan asked sternly.
"Guhan, you bastard, you're new here, and you don't care about Boss Yaoguang's life. We were all taken care of by Boss Yaoguang, and we care about Boss Yaoguang's life!" One of the sword-bearers said loudly.
"That's right, we can't let Boss Yaoguang die here. Boss Yaoguang has to go back to the base city!
Boss Yaoguang has told us many times that he loves his sister the most, and his biggest dream is to go back to the base city to see his sister, whom he hasn't seen for three years, and reunite with her.
We can't let Boss Yaoguang die here, we have to send Boss Yaoguang back to see his sister! "
Another sword-bearer said, but he was sobbing as he spoke, clearly hoping that Yaoguang would be able to see his sister.
"That year, Mingyue …" When Guhan heard this, he couldn't help but think of a familiar face. That was the first girl he met in the game, and also a girl who had helped him a lot.
Without Mingyue's help, he wouldn't have met Yaoguang, and he wouldn't have joined the "Betrayal of Altoria" dungeon. Many things wouldn't have happened after that. He still owed Mingyue a favor.
Although Mingyue had found her own love and stopped contacting Guhan, this friendship was still remembered in Guhan's heart.
If Guhan killed Jiufeng now, it would be equivalent to killing Yao Guang, Mingyue's closest brother.
"Forget it!"
Guhan let out a long sigh, then said to Jiufeng, "If I let you go, how can you promise me that you won't hurt Yaoguang?"
"The promise of us Great Shamans is the best guarantee!"
Jiufeng flapped her wings. "You humans, go through your history. When have we Great Shamans ever lied, and when have we not fulfilled our promises?
We Wu people mean what we say. If we say we won't kill him, we won't kill him. As long as you let me safely return to the Wu people's tribe, I'll send Yaoguang back to you tomorrow. "
"As for this … take it as proof of our Wu people's credibility."
Jiufeng looked at Ye Fan, who was under her claws, then kicked Ye Fan to Guhan's side. The rest of the sword bearers hurriedly helped Ye Fan up, applied medicine on him, and bandaged his wounds.
However, Ye Fan was really pitiful. Although he was released safely, he was only released as proof of his credibility … In the eyes of both the Wu people and humans, Ye Fan was far less important than Yaoguang.
"Let her go!"
Guhan clenched his teeth and waved his hand. The team surrounding Jiufeng opened up a gap. Jiufeng grabbed Yaoguang's medical pod with her claws and fled in the direction of the Wu people's tribe.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it, finally drew an incomplete end to this battle.
